## Contributing
|
|
|
|
The project is in maintenance mode, meaning, changes are driven by contributed patches.
|
|
Only bug fixes. The Barcode Scanner app can
|
|
no longer be published, so almost no fixes will be accepted for it.
|
|
There is otherwise no development or roadmap for this project.
|
|
|
|
Only proposed changes in the form of a pull request are likely to be acted on, but,
|
|
these will be acted on promptly.
|
|
|
|
### Feature Requests
|
|
|
|
Feature requests are not accepted.
|
|
|
|
### Bug Reports
|
|
|
|
Bug reports must have enough detail to understand and reproduce the problem.
|
|
Bug reports without an associated pull request will generally be closed.
|
|
However, bug reports with a pull request are likely to be merged promptly.
|
|
|
|
## FAQ
|
|
|
|
Please search previous issues for an answer before opening a pull request. A few common ones
|
|
are listed here.
|
|
|
|
### This doesn't work on later Androids
|
|
|
|
The Barcode Scanner app cannot be updated or published further, and will not be updated.
|
|
It does not work on Android 14+ and will not.
|
|
|
|
### I get a compilation error
|
|
|
|
While you can check the build status on Github to confirm,
|
|
the project correctly builds and passes tests at all times.
|
|
90% of the time it's due to using an old version of Java. Version 3.4+ require Java 8.
|
|
Use earlier versions with Java 7 and earlier.
|
|
|
|
### This barcode doesn't decode
|
|
|
|
Not all images will decode. All else equal, more is better, but this is not accepted as a bug
|
|
report. A pull request that makes changes to make the barcode decode without decreasing the net
|
|
number of barcodes recognized in the unit tests may be considered.
